European Rules of Civil Procedure sets out a clear examination of the Rules adopted by UNDROIT and the European Law Institute in 2020. Presented within a systematic structure to aid enhanced academic understanding, it precisely showcases the comparative knowledge of its authors.

Key Features:

• Provides rule-by-rule explanations of the ELI-UNDROIT Model European Rules of Civil Procedure
• Encompasses insight from a diverse international team of authors including members of the ELI/UNIDROIT project
• Offers commentary on all rules of the ERCP, surveying their meaning and application as well as their collective history

This in-depth Commentary will be essential for academics of European, private, corporate and commercial law disciplines wishing to sharpen their knowledge of comparative civil procedure. It will additionally benefit policy makers and practitioners with an interest in using the model rules to provide a framework for national legislation.

‘The European Rules of Civil Procedure are the outstanding product of years of work by the continent's most prominent proceduralists. Ideally these Rules will be adopted all across Europe. This book – written by many of the leading lights of the project – should be invaluable as this process of procedural integration moves forward. The new Rules provide a watershed, and this book provides an essential guide to this new regime.’
